Would be really nice to have an easier way of sorting things inside tabs. Currently, the dragging is a bit buggy (doesn't seem to reliably drag past the viewable portion of the window). My dream is marrying this mod with ferny's Drag Sorting. Or maybe you could add similar functionality? Thanks for your hard work!

Okay, I'll ask ferny.

@DawnsGlow No idea, havent seen any of those
DawnsGlow 30 Aug @ 8:56am 
Is this mod compatible with ferny's category series mods ? eg : Lighting Category mod, Transport Category mod, etc

@Virtuous No, only empty tabs are removed
Virtuous 26 Aug @ 2:19pm 
any way to hide tabs even if they have something in them?
Mlie  [author] 23 Aug @ 2:39pm 
@Eclipse I dont know what that is

Is it possible to make it compatible with drag sorting?

If anyone else ever wonders - I just went to the Dubs Skylights mod and edited the .xml file label and it worked.
Reverie 21 Aug @ 8:48am 
Oh, but is there a way to rename the tab at least? I could shove something into those skylights tab if I could rename it to farming or something :D I seem to recall doing something like that in the past, but for the life of me, I can't remember how...
Reverie 21 Aug @ 8:37am 
Hmm, damn. Well, guess all I can do is send you some good brainy vibes and hope you figure out of how to deal with those pesky orders once. Thanks for the reply!
Mlie  [author] 21 Aug @ 7:25am 
@Reverie 1. This is due to them being orders and not buildables. Orders are not things in the game but added to each architect menu in various ways. I have yet to come up with a good way to handle these.
2. Not really, if you have the option to remove empty menus after sorting they will not be shown in game but the settings gui will always show all tabs to enable sorting things into them.

I'll preface this with saying: this is the most need-to-have mod in existence for me. I love it. That being said, I've a couple questions:

1. Is there a way to display and move "deconstruct" buttons? A good example would be trying to move Dubs Skylights (just 4 items) from their separate tab to some other (let's say Misc.). I can move the lights, but the tab is still present and it has "Deconstruct Skylight" button inside it that I don't know how to move. I think it also happens with any mod that adds new pipes (like Ushanka's Luciferium Imperium and the like).

2. Is there a way to remove emptied tabs in the sorting menu in mod settings? Minor thing, it's just clutter, no biggie anyway.

Did this break on the latest patch? I don't see the arrows to rearrange the tab positions anymore.

@Mile I think all cases of Korean.

For example, I created a tab '설비' (which means facility in Korean) to move the structures added in a mod other than the walls and doors, such as roofs, stairs, and so on to another tab. But it said it's a tab that already exists, even if the basic structure tab of Rimworld is called '구조물'.

Regardless of these examples, tab creation was not possible with all the Korean I created.
Mlie  [author] 3 Aug @ 12:15am 
@LAFFEN I dont know Korean, perhaps you could post what names you where trying to use so I have something to test with?
LAFFEN 2 Aug @ 5:11pm 
Hello, I'm a Korean Rimworld user.

First of all, I would like to say thank you for updating my favorite mods to 1.6. But unfortunately, I can create a new tab in English, but when I create a new tab in Korean, another language, can't create a new tab because system message said it already has a tab with the same name. Even though it's not really like that at all.

It seems to be part of the bug, so I'd appreciate it if you could take a look.

Thanks ever so much, you're a real star!
Mad 27 Jul @ 2:00am 
@Mlie Yeah I figured that the moment I realized it dubs.. sorry for not testing more before first commenting.

By the way I have to say that the tab-sorting functionality from this mod does work with dubs, and works way better than the "pin" functionality of his. to me this alone makes this mod worth being subscribed to.

Thanks for your time mate!
Mlie  [author] 27 Jul @ 1:55am 
@Mad Yea, dubs overrules anything in this mod I think
Mad 27 Jul @ 1:49am 
anyway I actually made a mistake, UInotincluded is actually compatible with this mod. it will just affect the bottom bar and keep all the rest of the features from this mod intact.

the incompatibility was actually when used alongside Dubs Mint Menus. the tab-sorting functionality works fine, but inside the categories themselves this mod seems to have no effect.
Mad 27 Jul @ 1:43am 
"UInotincluded" offers a lot of control in how to customize bottom bar, more than what "Tab sorting" offers. you can customize the name, icon, and more advanced options for the buttons in the bottom bar. (for example; different mods like hospitality, hospital, prison labor all have different buttons in the bottom bar. with "UInotincluded" I can arrange them all under one button called facilities, that expands when clicked)

Overall it helps clean up the main hud in an a way that is appealing to the eye. however, it does not give us control over the order of categories inside the "Architect Tab". that's where "Tab Sorting" comes in. With it I can rearrange the categories in a more logical way.
Mlie  [author] 27 Jul @ 12:30am 
@Mad Isnt that mod doing the same thing as this mod? Do you need both loaded?
Mad 27 Jul @ 12:27am 
@Mlie - when using alongside “UInotIncluded” mod, the architect menu tabs can be sorted just fine. However, when reordering the buttons inside each category nothing happens, as if the changes don’t apply.

Hope you can look into it when you have time. No rush of course, I know how busy you must be with the transition to 1.6.

Your work is much appreciated friend.

@adam110902 Not without a large rewrite of the mod logic, not sure I have the time for that. Sorry
adam110902 24 Jul @ 9:01am 
1.6 update :)
would it be possible to have things in 2 tabs at once like some of the orders
for example end table with lamp could be in both lights and bedroom tab
LukeNukem 24 Jul @ 2:39am 
some off my menus are not auto hiding when empty. anyone know what's what and if there's an easy fix? odyssey for example.
Arky 23 Jul @ 10:07am

@Mlie
I remember that this one moved the anomaly ritual to ideology tab in 1.5 by default, i know u can change it manually, but just to let u know
Mlie  [author] 17 Jul @ 6:30am 
@IncensusFENIX I cant stop you, all my mods are open source.
IncensusFENIX 17 Jul @ 6:20am 
can I update (crookedly and through the ass) this mod until you release your update?
Deggial 17 Jul @ 3:09am 
I was anxiously checking my modlist for essential mods that had not yet been updated.

What a relief to realise that Mlie is in charge of this one!
KRKR 16 Jul @ 1:04pm 
I second Octarin. I cannot play this game without this mod! Thank you for all your hard work on it, and the hundreds of other mods.
Octarin 15 Jul @ 3:06am 
This is literally the one mod I check to see if it's updated every single time I fire up the game. I never knew I was so attached to it, but here we are. Anxiously waiting!
Moonshine Fox 13 Jul @ 6:54am 
hadn't realized just how much I relied on this mod to keep build stuff in a neat order. Glad it's on the list to be updated!
Mlie  [author] 11 Jul @ 9:13pm 
@mochi pants I do have a blacklist of things not to sort, perhaps its just better to add it to that if its just the pump that is the issue
